What is Stairway Lending?

Stairway Lending is a system which allows you to fill out an application for loan opportunities and get multiple offers from multiple lenders. Stairway Lending
will present you with as many offers as possible to satisfy your lending needs.

What type of loans will be offered?

All loans presented are fixed term installment loans. The payment will be consistent over the term of the loan. Further, an installment loan is less
damaging to your credit than an outstanding balance on a revolving line of credit (for example a credit card).

What can I use my loan for?

The loan can be used for any legal purpose. Please refer to your loan application with the lender for specifics.

How does the process work?

Fill out the information requested below.

Stairway Lending will find all offers available for you.

You select the best offer for your needs.

You work directly with the lender to complete the process.

How long does the process take?

Filling out the request and receiving offers takes only a few seconds. Once you provide the final information to the lender you
can receive your money in as little as 3-4 hours.

Do I need a checking account?

Yes! In order to receive the funds from your loan, you will need a checking account. If you don't have one, we recommend the
Free Checking from BBVA Compass.

Fast and Convenient

Application process takes seconds and loan can be completed in as little as 3 hours.

Before you leave, remember that getting loan offers is very easy.
The entire approval process takes just minutes, and you get your money in as little as 3 hours!
Besides, we will work with you even if your credit score is low.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using this Website, you agree to the terms of the Privacy Policy.

Information Collection

1. We collect personally identifiable information that can identify you such as your name, address, telephone number, mobile number, e-mail address and Social Security Number ("Personally Identifiable Information" or "PII"). We also collect information such as demographic data and data about your online activity on our website that does not identify you ("Non-Personally Identifiable Information" or "Non-PII"). PII and Non-PII are known together as "Information". We may also collect and store Information that you provide to us about other people (such as co-borrowers), including their name, address, telephone number, mobile devices, email address and Social Security Number. We collect this information for the sole purpose of responding to such inquiries and do not store the contact information unless requested, for example job applicants who submit resumes.

2. Information from Third Parties. We may obtain information about you from vendors, contractors, and other third parties. You authorize Stairway Lending and Lenders to obtain a personal credit profile from credit bureaus for credit pre-qualification and identity verification. You further agree that we may verify your identity and the information you provide us with third parties.

3. Cookies and Other Automatically Collected Information. We collect information about your computer and your visits to our website, such as your IP address, geographical location, browser type, referral source, length of visit, and page views through the use of log files. We use cookies on our website, including session ID cookies and persistent cookies. A cookie is a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, and stored by the browser. The text file is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track the web browser and load the pages according to a user’s preferences for that particular website, including the personalization of content. Cookies are not tied to personally identifiable information. More importantly, using cookies also helps us protect the security of your account. Session ID cookies follow your activities on our website so that we can ensure that no one is making changes to your profile, applying for loans or making loans on your behalf. This information is encrypted.

4. We may send a cookie that can be stored by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. We may use the information we obtain from the cookie in the administration of our website, to improve its usability and for evaluating our marketing effectiveness as described above. We may also use that information to recognize your computer when you visit our website (if you select the “remember me on this computer” option), and to personalize our website for you. We may also use that information to recognize your computer and display certain marketing messages when you or someone using your computer visit(s) our website and/or other websites. Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies. (For example, in Internet Explorer you can refuse all cookies by clicking “Tools,” “Internet Options,” “Privacy,” and selecting “Block all cookies” using the sliding selector). However, blocking cookies can also have a negative impact on the usability of our website.

5. Cookies may have long-term expiration dates and can stay in your hard drive for months at a time. While you can remove them as instructed by the “help” content in your chosen browser, disabling cookies will prevent you from using our website. As with many transactional websites, cookies must be enabled in order to use our website. We also use cookies for purposes such as maintaining continuity during an online session; gathering data about the use of our site; monitoring online promotions; and anti-fraud and information security purposes

6. Information Collected by Third Parties. We use third-party tracking services that use cookies to track non-personally identifiable information about visitors to our website. This may include page views and referral page information to track the success of our marketing efforts to bring people to our website as well as overall website performance. We use web beacons such as clear gifs, pixel tags, targeting pixels, third party pixels, or web bugs to track the number of new users who join our website in response to certain advertising efforts. This involves the use of small graphics that contain a unique identifier to track online users, some of which may be included in email messages or promotions to determine if a message has been opened or if a response is made. No personal or sensitive information is transmitted to such advertising partners. However, third parties may use IP addresses to avoid double-counting the number of new members who joined as a result of the advertising campaign or for other purposes.

7. Responding to “Do Not Track” Signals. Some web browsers have a “Do Not Track” function that allows you to tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. Stairway Lending is not currently set up to respond to these “do not track” signals.

8. Other Technologies. We may use web beacons and other standard Internet technologies to track your use on our websites. Web beacons (also known as clear gifs, pixel tags, targeting and re-targeting pixels, third party pixels or web bugs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users or to access cookies. We also may include web beacons in e-mail messages or newsletters to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon.

If you are eligible to apply for loans offered by lenders, then we may display choices that may interest you. You will then have the opportunity to select one of the choices. If you do not meet the eligibility criteria for the lenders, then we may not provide you with any choices.
You will have to complete an application with a lender before they will offer you a loan. lenders offer these terms directly to you via our application email and/or phone/text. We may transfer your information to lenders at your request and with your authorization to allow the lender to prepare your application with them for you to submit.

We also require that the third-party websites have a right under any applicable privacy policy to transfer the consumer data to us, and that Stairway Lending has the right to send marketing offers to the consumer.

Please read this information carefully and print a copy and/or retain this information for future reference.
